Racing Presidents named Best On Field Promotion of 2012

The Washington Nationals presidents race has been named Best On Field Promotion in Sports for 2012.

The award is bestowed annually by Gameops.com, a web site which connects sports teams and event producers with ideas and tools for on-field promotions. This is the third time that the Nats’ racing presidents have nabbed the award, having taken the prize in 2007 and again in 2009.

Gameops editor John Cudo, who works for the Cleveland Cavaliers and spent 7 years as the mascot for the Minnesota Timberwolves, has written frequently about the racing presidents, and follows it via the blog, which he called “a season long tutorial on how to keep a promotion you do every night interesting.”
